Eau Claire Jazz Festival

By: Robert Baca, Artistic Director

The Eau Claire Jazz Festival is pleased to present an exciting entertainment lineup this year. Friday night, we will be featuring The New York Voices, and Saturday night will be guest artists- Nachito Herrera and Terell Stafford.

The Eau Claire Jazz Festival continues to build on a rich educational tradition that was started by the University of Eau Claire.

In this, the 48th year of the Jazz Festival in Eau Claire, participants willcontinue be able to choose from a variety of new clinics that are sure to energize music directors and jazz lovers alike. The college and high school/middle school days will uphold the high standards and the same format as in past years. In addition, we are expanding vocal jazz, which will be held on Friday and we hope many different vocal groups or soloists will attend.

We are committed to offering participants greater value and variety of music opportunities that will foster further appreciation for jazz and create a memorable experience during the festival. Whether you are curious about jazz music or are a jazz lover, we hope you will join us for a wonderful weekend of music and a celebration of the arts.
